Apple guys have finally released their Safari web browser for Windows along with official website redesign. I know it’s not the final release but the current Windows version is completely unusable. Although the program interface is beautiful, the program itself has too many errors even for a beta. Here are some bugs I came across during the first moments of testing:
If all the major bugs get fixed in the final release, Safari will provide a decent browsing experience on Windows and the web developers will be happy for not having to get a Mac or Mac emulator to test and debug their sites.
That’s it for today, these were my first impressions about Safari for Windows, expect more to come tomorrow. And what’s your opinion about Safari for Windows? Share it in the comments below.

Yeah… Some people found out that the 2nd problem is caused by system regional settings incopatibility. If you don’t use U.S. English regional settings in your Windows, the browser won’t render texts correctly. I use Czech regional settings on all computers, this is why it happened to me. And you probably use Slovenian settings, so the same bug appears in your browser as well. Let’s hope that Apple releases an update that solves this. Changing system regional settings every time you run Safari won’t be good.
Anyway, very nice blog, I’ve added it to my RSS reader. At least I’ll learn some Slovenian. I’ve been using Slovenian version of Total Commander for like 2 years, I just love that language :).

Just tested it and encountered your 2nd and 3rd problem. The pages are not displayed correctly and adding a bookmark crashes it. It is not too slow for me, on some sites it is even faster than Opera, but they are displayed wrong, so… Until the release I will definitely stick to Opera and than I will give it another go.
